My thoughts are stripped to the bone is a waste of money and the loss of
vale on a resale for a limited production vehicle in the future. It may be
better to pull the items off of the stock R/T and store them for future
resale or conversion back.

Just my thoughts.

        Tell me if I,m crazy or not. I have really been thinking about
replacing my 99' 5.2L 5-speed Sport with an R/T. Tell me what you think
I should pay for it. I want to order it like my 94', stripped to the
bone, a go fast toy.
         
        99 Dakota R/T
        5.9L Auto
        Radio Delete
        No Air
        3.92 SG
        Replace the P255/55VR17's with P285/40ZR17's
        Pull out the factory buckets, replace with lighter racing seats.
        Bumper delete, roll pan instead.
         
        Do you think it will go faster than the average "loaded" R/T? Do
you think that I should just try to lighten my Sport? How do I lighten
it? I just want to go faster, the shipping weight on my Sport was 3755
lbs. I'm still wondering if I should buy it because I have only had my
Sport for 4 mos. Any comments, suggestions, or insults are welcome.
